Car has recently become less secure on bumps and generally feels like the steering is a bit less firm so that the car does not give quite the stability it had. Also I have noticed a minor thump when it goes over a bumpy road.

Raise car, put on stands. Grasp tire and push/pull both horizontally and vertically, if any movement then possible wheel bearing, ball joint, tie rod, control arm bushing.

Check CV boots for any signs of leakage or cuts/rips in rubber boot.
